Kind of messy that way. I seal my uppers and grind a vent into the bottom of the charging handle to redirect some gas. A little blue tape and RTV and let it cure, then remove the charging handle and you're good.
What’s the purpose behind this?
if you shoot with a suppressor, the increased back pressure has a bad habit of coming out through the charging handle and right into your eyeball.What’s the purpose behind this?
Piston ARs solve the gas problem
Just sayin' teheGet out of here with that commie crap...

Blasphemy! Piston operation is the bees knees lol! Yes I said thatPiston uppers are the Bernie Sanders of ARs... Next comes communism (AKs)...
Angel kisses man. Enjoy them, don't block them.Hope to block some of the gas that comes back into the chamber out of your face. There is a gap between the charging handle and the top receiver. Never had a problem until I put a can on the end of the gun.
I used one of these charging handles on two different suppressed Radian AR15s at the Big Daddy Unlimited Epic Shoot this year in Savannah.
Wow, what a huge difference they made. Pricey but if over gas is an issue., this is a must have.
